Janes P.O.V
Jasper and I had reached seattle before nightfall. We stole a car and a set of clothes each. I still needed a shower but Jasper sasid it was probably best if we waited to get away from washington state before we checked into a hotel. I understood that. But really i didn't care where it was as long as I could wash the ash from my body. Shifting in my seat. Wincing i could still feel the sting of Aftons bite on my shoulder. Pulling the arm of my dress down slightly. The bite was an angry red. Sighing. I knew that it would be better after I hunted but we had to wait till we were out of washington state for that one too. Jasper was under the impression some of the Wolves would still be following us. I didn't care. I just wanted to get to Texas already. Looking up. I noticed Jasper looking at me. Pulling up the strap of my dress. Trying to mask my emotions from him. Even though i knew it was no use. You can't hide your emotions from an Emptath. But i tried anyway. Tried to pull back the guard that i was she faltered but she was still there inside me "What are you looking at Whitlock" I tried to snap at him in a missirable attempt to sound like the feared guard that i was. I heard his snort as i looked away "Jane. You can't hide those emotions from me. Besides. I'd seen the bite" Sighing rolling my eyes. I didn't need to be making friends. I needed to be going back to save the ones i already had. "Jane, I know what it's li..." Cutting him off i snapped at him, Growling when i turned in my seat wincing at the pain that shot through my arm "Don't pretend like you know anything Jasper. You know -NOTHING- about what I am going through. What is happening with me. Don't try and pretend that you do." Turning back in my seat. I tried to Avoid eye contact. I wanted to avoid talking to him. But it was along road and i knew that we would need to talk at some point. But i didn't have to enjoy it. I expected Jasper to argue back but he didn't. He kept himself quiet something i was glad of. I held no grudge over Jasper. If there were any of the Cullens i liked it was him. We both had our demons. Worse then many others. And unlike others. We couldn't control them. him with his thirst and me with the temper that would boil when i felt threatened. Turning away from him again. Letting out a sigh. I rested my head against the window and watched the world go by. This moment. Even though i hated humans. I wished just for this moment that i was one. I wanted to sleep.I wanted to forget all of this ever happened. But i couldn't. Sighing. I could feel Jasper trying to manipulate my emotions, I was feeling somewhat drowzy, Relaxed. I knew he couldn't put me to sleep. But he could make me feel relaxed enough it felt like i was. I didn't even try and fight it like I would have. Right now i just wanted to relax even if my mind couldn't, Closing my eyes tight. I pretended to sleep. Something Demetri and I used to do when we locked ourselves up in either his chambers or mine for the night. Smiling slightly I let my mind drift to old times. The times that were good.
